Letter from Rabbi Michael Segal, Rabbi in London, to Rabbi Kook. London, 1910
The letter starts with many praises for Rabbi Kook: הרב הגאון הגדול מעוז ומגדול חריף ובקי סיני ועוקר הרים. Rabbi Levi then declares that he cannot accept the task of gabbai. "It is worthy to give this position to someone ... who will do all that he can to uplift this great endeavor."
Rabbi Levi served as rabbi in London, and was Rabbi Shimshon Rephael Hirsch's son-in-law.
